"The acklay was a large, nonsentient creature native to the oceans of Vendaxa. Its physical appearance made it a natural predator, with six sharp claws and an aggressive attitude. As such, it was commonly found in gladiatorial arenas on different worlds in the Outer Rim Territories. One world where acklays were present was Geonosis, where they fought in the Petranaki Arena. However, some escaped and managed to survive in the Geonosian deserts despite their native aquatic environment. An acklay was used in the attempted execution of the Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi in 22 BBY, but was killed by Kenobi. Acklays were also present on Felucia, where they attacked the 501st Legion during the Battle of Felucia, only to be wiped out by the clone troopers."

If possible could we have Acklay on Geonosis and Felucia as Indigineous creatures?

V2 maybe, we have been talking about Indigineous factions

Ah now this I would love to see on felucia

D · « **Reply #5 on:** August 22, 2008, 03:20 am »

they would be like the rancors on the dathomir mission in teh ZC campaign

Sergeant Lyeman · « **Reply #6 on:** August 22, 2008, 03:27 am »

yeah, perhaps faster but a bit less powerful?

aceofhicks · « **Reply #7 on:** August 22, 2008, 03:38 am »

of course!

Quite so. It would be a nice challenge added to capturing the planet, having Acklay speed after your forces. However, don't make them as uber as in BFII's campaign; that would be terrible.

But if you think about it seriously....a single volley from an AT-AT should vaporize those things.

After all Obi-dude lopped off its legs with relative ease

Dr. Doozer · « **Reply #10 on:** August 22, 2008, 04:33 am »

Maybe even less than that. Perhaps maybe about 5 shots from an AT-ST. You should be able to put them down easily enough that it makes it fun to battle them, but not so that they're like tissue paper

D · « **Reply #11 on:** August 22, 2008, 07:30 am »

oh i know power, for the game they should take some damage before going down.

but "in-universe" an AT-AT main cannons could blow up buildings, and could vaporize aklay like tissue paper

I like this idea....but don't make them too overpowered please

Solar · « **Reply #13 on:** August 22, 2008, 09:20 am »

you people have no faith at all do you?

Dr. Doozer · « **Reply #14 on:** August 22, 2008, 04:25 pm »

It just wasn't too fun to fight them in BFII, so we're trying to make sure we don't end up losing half of our army to a group of Acklay.

It would be intresting to see it in-game.

Lord of the Night · « **Reply #16 on:** August 22, 2008, 07:00 pm »

It was cool fighting them in BFII, just would have liked to fight them with aayla instead of getting killed in one hit

Quantum Rain · « **Reply #17 on:** August 22, 2008, 07:00 pm »

me too.

Emperor Onasi · « **Reply #18 on:** August 22, 2008, 07:50 pm »

yea, i don't want a one hit kill deal going on in UEaW

M Doyle · « **Reply #19 on:** August 22, 2008, 08:01 pm »

one question that i have though is what about the plants of felucia? would they hurt the Ackly or not as they seem to attack whatever goes past.
